Chapter 20: An Awkward Visit
Chapter 20: An Awkward Visit
"Eh~~ Deliver something to a neighbor?" I thought I was asking me to send it to the post office and send it to my father.
"Kasang, can I not go?" I looked up at my mother with a hopeful gaze, hoping that she would open up, after all, interpersonal communication is the most troublesome, and I am not very good at it.
"No, Xiao Yu has another look of trouble, this is not good, the necessary interpersonal communication is a must" The mother shook her fingers from side to side, as if dealing with the reaction of a disobedient child.
"And didn't Aunt Yubihama always give you candy when she was a child?"
“......”
Don't mention that kind of old thing, I haven't seen their family for a long time.
"And their daughter seems to be in Zongwugao, it's better for you to go and see it, after all, weren't you friends before?" As if remembering something, the mother said slowly with her finger against her chin.
The daughter of the Yubihama family?, I remember, it seems to be called 'Yui'.
For some reason, at the moment of silently saying this name, the figure of a little girl with fluffy black shoulder-length hair flashed in my mind, like a swallow skimming the water, and the lake of memory rippled round and round.
Speaking of which,A few of us can really be regarded as the kind of childhood sweethearts in the anime.,When I was a child, I often took the lead.,Take Yubihama and Mitsuki to play together.,At that time, the body was not as weak as it is now.,Every day I'm full of vitality.,Streets near the community、Alleys、Parks、Overpass、 The trio of us almost all ran around the platform or something, and we were left playing everywhere, because of the relationship between the two girls in the team, and most of the general game shows took their factors into account, either a role-playing game or a steel jungle adventure game (in fact, it was just hide and seek)......
I still remember that time, playing ghost catching games with children of the same age, my sister Mitsuki was relatively young, and Yubihama was always clumsy, and the two of them were often caught in ghost hunting games. And in the end, when it was the turn of the two of them to be ghosts, they couldn't catch anyone at all, except that I finally gave up and let them catch them. Sometimes because I ran too fast after us, I ended up with my left foot and my right foot often fell to the ground, crying......
Mitsuki doesn't matter, after all, I'm still young, and Yubihama is obviously the same age as me, but like my sister, she often cries like a pitiful worm, and as the only leader of the three-person team, I have to take responsibility for comforting them, and I feel like taking care of Mitsuki and Yubihama's brother is like taking care of my two stupid sisters......
"I guess it's Yui's name," I said slowly, after a brief memory.
"Well, doesn't Xiaoyou remember it very clearly, I remember that the relationship between the three of you was very good, but Xiaoyou never went to play with her since, and when she came to our house to play, you also closed the door and ignored others, which made the child sad for a long time. Mom looked at me complainingly and said.
Hearing my mother's words, I was a little embarrassed, but what can I do, the classmates who originally thought I were good at were like that, except for the little sister who had a close blood relationship with me, who else could I believe it? Yubihama didn't know what he thought about me, but because I didn't want to hear the words of hating me from her mouth again, so I started first.
And......
"I was like this when I was a child, but now it's different.
Today's female high school students are very picky when they hear it, such as spraying perfume on their bodies after their father walks by, for example, they feel that there is no ** at this age, it is a manifestation of no girl's charm or something, such as a group of people get together every day to talk about what messy topics and then a group of people giggle and so on...... All in all, it's all indifferent people with a non-caring worldview. Who knows if this is the case with Yubihama. I said, spreading my hands.
"Yui is definitely a good boy, Mom promises. She still often plays with Mitsuki now, and her mother still knows a little bit about her. ”
After listening to my mother's remarks, I also knew that Yubihama was a good boy, and my 'strong' Chigusa mother would not be wrong, but ......
"No, I don't want to go" I just don't want to go, interpersonal communication or something is really annoying, and after so many years, she and I have long since become strangers.
"Hmm...... Could it be that Xiaoyu has reached the age of rebellion? I don't listen to my mother anymore, my father is not at home, and the only eldest boy in the family is disobedient, it seems that my mother can only rely on Mitsuki and the two of them for their lives?Mom is so sad and sad......" My mother cried while pretending to wipe her tears, and secretly watched my reaction through her fingers.
Embarrassment~~ Your intentions for doing this are all exposed, Kasang.
Don't you just don't want to bring something, as for doing so?
But my mother's childish complaint was so similar that it hit me straight to the depths of my heart. Although I knew it was fake, I still couldn't help feeling guilty in my heart, so I had to give in under the drive of guilt and my mother's strong hand.
......
I walked out of the house, stood on the paved road made of cement, and looked around, and there were still graffiti painted on the gray wall of the surrounding yard in some places, which were the graffiti of a few of us when we were children, but I didn't expect it to still exist now.
Lifting my leg and stepping forward, I began to walk towards the house with the door sign that said 'Yubihama'.
'Knock Knock' heart was beating a little uneasily, and I think it felt like the main character of the anime who was about to meet the final boss
Walking along the cement and stone paved path in the courtyard, I rang the doorbell that I didn't want to knock on very much.
'Ding Dong' 'Ding Dong'
The sound of slippers lapping on the floor, the owner of the house came over, and I swallowed my saliva and waited nervously for the door to open.
The door was opened by a lady with a slightly boyish face, her long, slightly fluffy black hair falling out of thin air, dressed like my mother's housewife, and always with a gentle smile on her face, which made people feel good and at the same time not lose the demeanor of an elder.
After meeting people, I didn't feel as nervous as I did at the beginning, and it probably had something to do with Aunt Yubihama's kind appearance.
"Excuse me......" The person in front of him looked a little hesitant, as if he was thinking about something.
After all, it's been three years, and I've changed a little bit, not only has my height become a lot taller, but even my appearance has changed a lot, and it's normal for Aunt Yubihama not to know me.
"Aunt Yubihama, hello, I'm Yuji Sakai, Mitsuki's older brother. "I introduced myself before she could ask questions, and I gave Mitsuki her name, so that she didn't know me.
"Allah, it's Xiao Yu," Aunt Yubihama nodded and said.
Suddenly, she stretched out her hands and grabbed my shoulders with a 'snap', startling me.
Then she made a 'uh-huh' sound, nodded up and down, looked at me and said, "I haven't seen you for three years, Xiaoyou has grown up, and she has become taller than Auntie."
It's so enthusiastic, it feels a little troublesome like this, Aunt Yubihama!!
"Yes, but Aunt Yubihama hasn't changed at all, and you're still as young and beautiful as ever," I said in the usual social terms.
"Allah, thank you for the compliment," Aunt Yubihama replied with her mouth covered.
"All in all, let's come to Auntie's house first, after all, I haven't seen Xiaoyou for a long time."
"No, no, no, Auntie, I just asked my mother to deliver something. After saying that, I also raised the black plastic bag in my hand and gestured to her.
"Huh, is it Xiaoyou, do you hate to go into Auntie's house, do you hate Auntie?" Aunt Yubibin squatted down and said with a heartbroken look, looking like she couldn't squat without giving her an explanation.
Suddenly I felt countless black lines on my head, how to be a virtue with my mother, looking like a child, but I have to say that she did it very successfully, I have no way to do this, let an elder squat on the ground like this, I feel super embarrassed, so I quickly stepped forward to explain......
After following Aunt Yubihama into the house, she let me sit on the sofa, went into the kitchen and brought me a cup of steaming tea, and said:
"Here, I remember Xiaoyou, you like to drink this kind of sweetened milk tea. ”
"Thank you, Auntie, I'm sorry for your trouble" Although there are also reasons why I often came here to play when I was a child, I didn't expect that my aunt still remembered such a trivial matter, and I was inexplicably moved in my heart.
"You don't have to be polite to your aunt, just be your own home" I can only agree to this
"I heard that Xiaoyou, you have turned back to Zongwu High again?"
"Hmm"
"That's ......" Aunt Yubihama seemed to be thinking about something.
"Then I'll call Yui to get to know you again" Hearing this, I suddenly felt that things were getting a little troublesome, and I couldn't go on like this
"Wait ......" Before I could finish speaking, Aunt Yubibin had already shouted:
"Yui~~"
"What's the matter, Mom?" I heard my mother's call, and a girl about my age came down from the upper floor.
Yui Yuihama, she gives the impression that she is the so-called female high school student today, and this kind of girl can often be seen. In other words, Acura young girls who can dress up. The skirt has been shortened, and about three buttons of the blouse are not buttoned, and you can peek at the shiny necklace on the chest, heart-shaped trinkets, and brown hair, which is different from the original loose and soft black hair, and looks more beautiful after dyeing.
Ah, I miss her so much, the little girl who used to be simple, the existence that used to learn to call me 'Brother Yu' with Mitsuki, especially the fluffy natural curls at the beginning, it feels very comfortable to touch, like touching the hair of a small animal.
And now...... This type of girl happens to be the type of girl I work hard for, and it's a big problem now
......
"Yo" didn't know what to say, so I could only say hello dryly.
The girl was startled when she heard this, and immediately stopped standing still.
"Mom, who is this?"
Ah, needless to say, this is just the wariness of an ordinary high school girl facing strangers. Keeping a certain distance, this is the most common way to ensure your sense of security, I can understand your behavior, I don't mind at all, to be honest, I really don't mind, really...... It's weird
It's a feeling to see people I used to know who don't remember me at all...... It's complicated!
And do you want to be so far away, hey, it's not a matter of getting close, it's almost eight meters away, okay? Am I a humanoid self-propelled cannon? Am I a male creature with a white cloudy brain? Do I have the superpower to get pregnant at a glance? I'm sorry, I've seen it, you're pregnant...... No, why should I admit it!!
Yuji Sakai, who is in the depths of his heart, is silently lost.
"Hora, Yui, don't be so rude, this is Yuji Sakai, Mitsuki's brother, didn't you often play with you and Mitsuki before, you used to call him 'Yuuji', right, Yuuji" As she spoke, Aunt Yuhama turned her head to me.
I could only echo the awkward smile.
Ah, it's really troublesome to have interpersonal communication or something, and this kind of conversation that can't go up or down is even more troublesome, can you let me leave here!
